Short answer
Yes, it is safe. Cooked, plain, boneless salmon is safe and rich in omega-3 for cats. However, raw salmon can carry the parasite that causes salmon poisoning disease, so always serve it fully cooked and plain. If your cat only ate a small piece of cooked salmon, there is no need to worry. Watch for any vomiting or diarrhea, and contact your vet or the ASPCA Poison Control line at 888-426-4435 if symptoms develop.
